Answer 1

17. option D is correct as the  Asbestosis is the occupational lung disease as the major marker of the pneumoconiosis

18. option B is correct as Inferior vena cava it is the main site for the pulmonary embolism

19. option E is correct Tb is most contaginous as the major airborn disease

20. option B is correct as it is the sign of the left heart failure

21. option D is correct as in this to compensate it the heart rate of the patient increases

22. option A is correct as thoracentesis remove fluid from the intrapleural space and thus leading to the expasion of the lungs

23. Option B is correct as the Pleuritis is unilateral & it tends to be localized eapecially to the lower & lateral part of chest
